Should I move officially to this new cong?
by will-be-apostate inso i got in college recently (petroleum engineering), which is 150+ miles away from my home town.
i started to go to the meetings once in a while to please my parents because i hate lieing to them, although i did several times regarding meetings.. last time an elder - special pioneer - came to me at the hall and asked me if i had already thought about transfering my 'files' aka.
publisher card to that congregation.

Go to a cong that is a bit out of your way a few times, get them transfered there, then never go back.

A mistake in fading 4 months ago is coming back to haunt me... HELP!!
by ILoveTTATT inso today, two elders from a congregation i was in two years ago came by the house.
they said they wanted to talk to me about things that they have heard, and that they want to talk to me very quickly, as soon as possible.
perhaps before this week ends.. i don't know what to do!!

Your mother needs to get the message that this mess is her doing and she needs to fix it.
She raised you in a doomsday church that already had a string of prophetic failures before you were even born, (name one that occured in her lifetime, that she would have had to ignore, excuse, whatever). Jehovah had steadfastly refused to do anything the WT promised on his behalf before you were born and she still gambled on them, a high stakes gambol that if Jehovah let them down as usual could easily result in her kids leaving the church, resulting in instructions from her church leaders to shun them if they got DF/DA.
It was her choice to raise you in the church, her choice to advise you to get baptised even though Jehovah had already clearly demonstrated he didn't support the WT's promises, and now it is her choice whether, or not, to attempt to call the dogs off and try to influence them to leave well enough alone ..... and if they do announce you as DF/DA it will be her choice whether, or not, she lets her church leaders tell her to destroy her relationship with you.

A Challenge for Jehovahs Witness Apologists : Identify What Jesus Christ Has Accomplished In His Nearly Complete 100 Year Reign From 1914
by smiddy ini for one would be very interested , if you can quantify what his acheivements have been , these past almost 100 years .. incidental acheivements could do for a start ,.
followed by more meaningfull acheivements ,.
then to top it off , with his major acheivements that he can be accredited with these past 99 years of his kingdom rule ,.

His pics in the WT have gone from dark beard to white beard. Does that count as an achievement?
